The Tornike Javakhadze House Museum is a private collection set up in a residential house. Museums like this take shape around one person and his interest: the belongings, the documents, the photographs, the things he thought worth keeping. The family shows and explains everything, so the visit turns out personal and unhurried.
The house is on Nadira Khosharauli street, in a residential district of Tbilisi, away from the tourist centre. The block is ordinary, with apartment buildings and courtyards. The entrance is unassuming, so go by the house number and call if you cannot find it.
The collection is intimate and half an hour is enough. A phone number is listed, and for a private house calling ahead is essential. The first half of the day is the easier time to come.
Tips
